Woudn't be straight up and again i'll say this wouldn't be happening if the cap were at $70M still. It is a money move and has allot to do with Bergeron, Krejci and Lucic extensions coming up in the next few years.

"Believe Peverley may be in that Dallas/Boston deal as well."

This would free up even more money for Chiarelli tomorrow!

I agree San Dog in part ... money , yes, but like I have always said we never are privy to what happens behind closed doors... Seguin did not do himself any favours here in Boston it appears on the surface . I know he is a young kid , and from what I had heard like all of us , that off ice issues did not make the Bruins Brass happy .... basically Chiarelli came out at season's end and sort of scolded him like you would your child basically except in the press... Did this burn Seguin and he demanded out of Boston? Who knows? Bruins do not pull this kind of move, especially with this type of player who was deemed to be future franchise player, unless there are underlying circumstances... To which we may never know...

Yes, the Bruins are going to have to add to this deal to get Ericksson... I agree.
